I live in Switzerland and 10-years-ago I spent about a week in Shanghai and a week in Nanjing. The air in Shanghai was as clean as anything here. The cars, delivery trucks, even the mopeds were all electric.

The week in Nanjing was quite different. Every day you could smell and taste coal smoke and by the end of the day when you blew your nose it came out black. So I assume they were producing electricity with coal far away to make electricity for Shanghai.

It's ten yers later now and from reading about all of the green power they're adding and about installing long-distance power lines to the cities hopefully it allows Nanjing to clean up.
